Food, Shopping and 4 x 4 Ride.

Yesterday don’t have much to
report about. We went to Georgies for breakfast again. $14.50 for both of us. Bills
breakfast – less than $8 for all of it.

Next we stopped at Walgreen’s to
see if the laundry sheets they are advertising on TV were like the ones I’ve
been trying to find. Nope – they are just soap and stain remover. The ones I
used to use also had softener in them. Shoot.

On to WalMart to pick up a few
things we needed. After that home to watch a soccer game. Game ended in a tie
but during the game Messi got hurt. Pulled hamstring. Don’t know yet if he’ll
have to miss any games or not.

Stayed at RV for the rest of the
day. Had our leftover KFC for dinner. Bill read and I knitted. Did learn the
purl stitch and was doing pretty good until I started watching TV and lost
track of what I was doing. I also think I’m not holding the needles right as
the purl is sure awkward for me.

Just a view from our door of the
RV park.

Now today is a different story. We
left here early and went into Sedona to have breakfast at the Coffee Pot
Restaurant.

It is named for a rock behind it that resembles an old fashioned
coffee pot. They are famous for their omelets
– they have 101 different kinds. You order them by number. Bill had #6 ham and
cheese and I had #80 corn beef hash and cheese. Also hashbrowns and toast and
coffee. About double the price of Georgies – but interesting place to eat.

Then we went to the Tlaquepaque Arts
and CraftsVillage – called "The art and soul of Sedona.” I’m not sure I’d go that far but there are lots of
art galleries and restaurants there. And some pretty interesting architecture. I enjoyed it. This is the parking lot right next to where we parked.
They built the wall around the tree.

And this sculpture is in the
parking lot too. Metal and green glass. Interesting.

After a couple of shops Bill sat
in the shade and waited for me. I found these very interesting. So colorful and
different. This one was outside in the garden.

This one inside – had to sneak the
picture so it’s not all that good. They are acrylic on wood covered with a
resin of some kind.

Just one of the courtyards in the
village. Resembles a small church bell and all.

Another courtyard and some of the
small shops.

A garden in front of the Secret
Garden Restaurant.

This beautiful horse was also in
the garden.

Around the corner was a gallery
where they sold bronzes and paintings of the west. This cowboy and his dog were
out in front of it.

Another shop – oops – gallery that
sold glass items. Blown and fused. These wings are made up of individual pieces
of glass shaped like feathers. Lots of work to make them.

And my favorite – I’d like to take
him home with me.

After leaving there we decided to
take a ride up Schnebly Hill Road.
Just turning on to the road. We will end up above that butte.

Took lots and lots of pictures on
the way up and a video. I hope it will upload now.
